I recently went through a tactical shooting course using my mini 14. All I was instructed to bring was reliable magazines. I went through the entire course without a single malfunction. Even when I accidentally got some mud in chamber. Now, the AR guys, they had a more interesting time. Stove pipes, mags falling apart. Trigger pins riding out causing the entire Trigger assembly to shit the bed. And for sure constant malfunctions when introduced to dirt. My second would be a 10-22 for the simple fact there are a thousand and one way to have it. You can literally make it anyway you want.

Honestly i just picked up a mini 14 because i cant stand ar 15s. Everybody has one. Its so main stream and boring everybody has a glock and a ar 15. I like to be a bit different. Also if you put in 5 or 10 round mags, the gun is much more sleek and nimble for tight situations or wading through the trees and bushes, i personally have a folding stock model so its not quite the same as far as that but even so i just think its a better gun for survival. PLUS the ar 15 is a gun that needs maintenance. It has seals, it has springs that jeed replaced. It needs cleaned often or it wont run properly. Its a nightmare to dis assemble and re assemble if you dont have a flat clean surface to not lose any parts, a mini 14? Run it till you burn up the barrel pretty much. And even when you have to clean it. The gun breaks down into about 4-5 big parts depending on how much you take off. Great gun. Good enough for the battle field for me

This is a very interesting subject. SHTF can come in many different ways. It will also affect people differently based on geographic location within the US. For me, I'm in between extremely rural areas, and a large city in Texas. In the city, my first thought obviously is self defense. In the rural areas, my first thought is hunting. With that being said, there are many different options. If I had only 2 choices, it would be an Ar15, and a 9mm carbine.

Shit if ur gonna play the .22 game then get something that will run shorts, longs, and LR and something that will cycle snake shot at least cover all the bases. The only real advantage to .223 is ammo is everywhere. So if u wanna play that game then why not a .308? I mean the .308 defeats level 3a plates so why would u limit ur long gun to a .223 that only defeats level II plates? I literally said every situation is unique and so is every person and u came up in here like “NO EVERYONE NEEDS AN ARP THEY HAVE TO HAVE IT” like Brodie are u 12? I mean u clearly know everything.

Dude, my picks are the exact opposite - mini 14 for the durability (which a few others here seem to agree with), and the 10/22 because I believe there are more of them out there.

Marlin 39 would be cool but not because of use of different 22’s. I’ve not seen shorts or longs very often. LR is about it so that’s mostly what you’ll have. 10/22 would work as well. If you’re bugging in then light ammo is not a consideration, only when bugging out does it come into play. Two long arms, one for fighting, your choice. AR, AK, something else.

Why you think so?

tHE 22 IN WHICHEVER FORMAT YOU PREFER IS AN OBVIOUS CHOICE, IN ADDITION IN THE SAME METHOD OF RATIONAL ON THE AMMO CONVENIENCE AND PORTABILITY I CHOOSE A PC CARBINE BY RUGER IN 9MM, it gives you ease of carrying more ammo but more shooting poser than a 22 but it can be adopted to use Glock magazines and a sidearm, Glock 19 will be hanging on my belt or in my pocket so the versatility of a dual magazine use, the Model 19 Glock uses a 15 round mag but also can use the model 17's 17 round magazu=ine in it as well as the Ruger, in addition the Magazines for Glock compatibility comes in a 33 round mag as well so you have high capacity and the 9mm round in a carbine gives you more velosity so more penetration than from the pistol, in that same philosophy of use another choice is my Marlin 357 mag carbine along with my 357 revolver giving you dual use again in carbine and handgun, in addition the advantage of the 357 you also get dual cartridge use in using a 357 mag cartridge as well as a 38 special for use in both firearms, of course the 22 can be had in both as well as well as a 22 WMR , or as commonly called 22 Magnum, I have dual firearm use in all these, so the decisions are hard but a 12 gauge is a great choice in a long gun but only if sheltering down at home where ammo transport is not needed otherwise you need a cart to carry the weight of the ammo, but if your doing that then I am carrying multiple firearms in that cart along with multiple ammos, the AR 15 is a given as a choice of course, for sure the 22 and 9mm are coming as first two choices

Thanks for feedback man! I think you chose some great guns! I used to have the Ruger PC and it worked great! Never had a problem. Good luck and good shooting!

Let me help you out on the Mini 14 vs the AR15. I would go with the Mini 14 because it is more robust and durable. Just a simple fact about AR15's that I dont like, "they are made to brake." The reason I say they are "made to brake" is because they are made to be easily repaired. The only way a AR15 makes since is if you have support for it like our Military does, with an Armorer and a bunch of spare parts. Where as the Mini 14 is built like a brick shit house. And the magazine thing, what are you guys doing? Throwing away your magazines after every gun fight to go collect more? Why are you losing magazine to the point you need to find more? And why in the hell did you not have enough mags to start with lol? Need to really stop and question some of the crap you read on the internet. But my SHTF gun will be my Marlin 336 30-30. It's a good all around tough as ballz gun. Effective out to 300 yards, no one has ever question the stopping power of a 30-30, ammo is abundant, and does not need magazines. If you ever found yourself in a gun fight where you need hundred of rounds of ammo, fast mag changes, "high speed, low drag" situation, then you will more than likely end up dead. Best thing to be in a SHTF situation is to be a shadow.

Hey Huff I agree the Mini is the more durable gun and also needs a whole lot less maintenance than a AR. It’s really a tough choice, I definitely wouldn’t be throwing my mags away for the Mini, I need to buy more of them bc I only have a couple currently while I have at least 15 for my AR bc they so much cheaper to buy. I also like your 3030 choice bc I have 3 of them and just love the lever platform. I think if you just pick a gun you the most comfortable with then that’s right decision 👍🏻

my 22's #1 old Rossi model 62 take down shoots 22 CB /S /L/LR and will slam fire. #2 old Marlin model 989 M2 22LR with 5 rounds 15 & 4 rounds10 4 rounds & 7 rounds magazines. #3 old marlin M1 22LR tube magazines. #4 Ruger mini 14 556 i have 13 Topco the good magazines & 4 Ruger magazines , #5 Ruger Scout Rifle 308 Win, 1- 5 rounds 7- 10 rounds. now i like my Winchester 1894's 1 in 30-30 & 1 in 45LC , now if just two guns to choices would be my Rossi 62 and Ruger mini 14,
